I was so curious about this scent but something made me hesitate and I didn't blind buy it like I used to do when adding Amouages into my collection. This is quite different from the overall style of Amouage but I have to admit that I haven't tried so many from an old Opus Collection, I do have around 40 Amouages though . This is one of the most realistic rose perfumes which I have tried. It's beautiful and fresh but to my nose it's almost like a solifore. There is a light noticeable metallic undertone and for some people "Varnish" effect can be too much but I was thinking that it would be clearly noticeable. I thought that in this scent that note would make this perfume strange (in a positive way) and utterly unique experience but it didn't. It's hidden on my skin like is the leather and I'm thinking now how a leather note performs in Amouage's perfumes. Even Oud is only in far away background and it doesn't bring any animalic vibe here. I was thinking that this is challenging as well but it's not. For me this was a disappointment, unfortunately. I don't have yet Opus XII - Rose Incense | Amouage which I love a lot and this didn't took it's place as a best Amouage's rose scent. Ingredients here are high quality, it's not synthetic to my nose but for me it lacks creativity and complexity, it's not an artistic masterpiece which I was waiting to have. It's very pleasant though and it quickly settles down into a smooth and velvety texture with a gentle creaminess from Ylang-Ylang. I love natural aroma of roses and I have some. If you like this Opus X perfume I recommend to try these ones as well, at least these ones are not discontinued. They are not totally same of course but they all have that distinctive natural aroma of roses which is much better than in this scent. Honestly, I love them all more than this one. But all of these are even more realistic Rose than Opus X. Narjesi | The Spirit of Dubai Triad (Extrait de Parfum) | Bortnikoff Zemfira (Extrait de Parfum) | Bortnikoff Khaan | Katana and La fille de Berlin (Eau de Parfum) | Serge Lutens Thank you for reading, I hope you liked my review.
